The Endocardium and Heart Valves
Endocardial cells are specialized endothelial cells that, during embryogenesis, form a lining on the inside of the developing heart, which is maintained throughout life. Endocardial cells are an essential source for several lineages of the cardiovascular system including coronary endothelium, endocardial cushion mesenchyme, cardiomyocytes, mural cells,

Abstract The endocardium is the endothelial component of the vertebrate heart and plays a key role in heart development. Where, when, and how the endocardium segregates during embryogenesis have remained largely unknown, however. We now show that Nkx2-5 +

Hand2 Is an Essential Regulator for Two Notch-Dependent Functions within the Embryonic Endocardium
The basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Hand2 plays critical roles during cardiac morphogenesis via expression and function within myocardial, neural crest, and epicardial cell populations.

GATA4 Regulates Developing Endocardium Through Interaction With ETS1
Background: The pioneer transcription factor (TF) GATA4 (GATA Binding Protein 4) is expressed in multiple cardiovascular lineages and is essential for heart development.

VEGF-B Promotes Endocardium-Derived Coronary Vessel Development and Cardiac Regeneration.
Background: Recent discoveries have indicated that, in the developing heart, sinus venosus and endocardium provide major sources of endothelium for coronary vessel growth that supports the expanding myocardium.

The Zebrafish Cardiac Endothelial Cell—Roles in Development and Regeneration
In zebrafish, the spatiotemporal development of the vascular system is well described due to its stereotypical nature. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms orchestrating post-embryonic vascular development, the maintenance of vascular ...

Inadvertent Diversion of Superior Vena Cava to the Left Atrium- A Diagnosis Made by Bubble Contrast Echocardiography [PDF]
Sinus venosus Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is the abnormal drainage of pulmonary veins to right atrium, which can present with symptoms of pulmonary hypertension.

Crk and Crkl Are Required in the Endocardial Lineage for Heart Valve Development
Background Endocardial cells are a major progenitor population that gives rise to heart valves through endocardial cushion formation by endocardial to mesenchymal transformation and the subsequent endocardial cushion remodeling.

Aortic thromboembolism (ATE) occurs in cats with cardiomyopathy and often results in euthanasia due to poor prognosis. However, the underlying predisposing mechanisms leading to left atrial (LA) thrombus formation are not fully characterised.
